Hearing Lu An's words, Red Yi was slightly startled and then frowned.
She knew that her people would not let go of such a good opportunity. It seemed that agreeing to this matter was just a pretense. She immediately stood up and said, "Okay, leave it to me."
"Sister Red Yi." Lu An also quickly stood up and said, "Just persuade them. If you can't persuade them, don't quarrel. Come back and slowly discuss the countermeasures. Then I will go again."
Seeing Lu An anxious look, Red Yi's heart warmed and she said, "Okay."
Then, Red Yi opened the teleportation array and left Ice and Fire City.

Extreme South Ocean, Fire Lion Island.
Rumble …
Rumbling sounds could be heard everywhere on the land of the Fire Lions. This was the sound of the Fire Lions constantly running, as well as the sound of the Fire Lions constantly practicing in the sea. Although Fire Lion Tribe also liked to sleep and rest, it was not as serious as Sky Tiger Tribe. They were more lively and active. In addition, they were organized and disciplined. It was common for them to practice with each other.
However … when Red Yi heard these sounds, she immediately frowned. This was because the sounds were much louder than before.
While Red Yi moved forward, she quickly changed into her original form and ran towards Lion King Hall. Her fur was obviously better than all the Fire Lions passing by. Coupled with Red Yi's beautiful appearance, all the Fire Lions stopped and looked at her.
Since the arrival of that human, the Red Coat had rarely appeared on Fire Lion Island, which made the Fire Lions on Fire Lion Island very upset and disappointed. They all hoped that the princess would come back quickly and not stay outside. Now that the war was imminent, the princess's return would undoubtedly boost the army's morale.
However … the princess did not seem to be that happy.
Red Yi's speed was very fast. Soon, she rushed out of Lion King Hall. The door opened. There were many elders inside. Of course, Lion King was also there.
Lion King stood on the high platform and looked down at all his people. The hall was extremely noisy. Everyone was debating and expressing their own opinions.
There was no need to ask anything. Red Yi, who rushed to the door, heard her own language and immediately understood what these people were discussing.
The location of the attack, the number of attacks, and the batch of attacks.
Hearing these words, Red Yi, who was standing at the door, frowned even more. She directly walked into Lion King Hall.
The elders who were in the midst of a discussion immediately sensed the aura and turned to look at the door. When they saw that it was the princess who had returned, they were immediately stunned. Following that, all the discussions stopped abruptly. They looked at the princess and then at the Lion King on the high platform.
Obviously, they did not want the Red Specter to hear their discussion. The Lion King had once told them to try their best to hide this from the Red Specter. If they could find out one day later, they would. However, they did not expect the Red Specter to return so quickly and so suddenly.
The Lion King looked down at his daughter who had just walked in. The Red Shirt raised his head to look at his father. Finally, he stopped in the middle of the hall.
"Father." Hong Yi looked at the Lion King and said in a low voice, "Are you really going to lead the Flame Lion Race to attack the Continent?"
"…"
With things as they were, Leonis knew that there was no way he could hide anything. Furthermore, this matter could not be hidden very soon, so there was no need for him to lie. He said directly, "Yes."
"But you clearly sent people to promise that before the Life and Death Alliance gave the order, we wouldn't attack the continent!" Hong Yi's voice was clearly much louder as she looked at the Lion King with a questioning tone.
"Hong Yi!" Immediately, a Flame Lion at the side spoke. It was none other than the Lion King's eldest son, the Red Specter's brother, Shaxiong. He shouted, "Watch your tone!"
Hong Yi turned to look at Shaxiong. However, it was only a glance before she turned back to the Lion King and asked again, "Why are you doing this?"
"For the benefit and future of our Flame Lion Race, is this enough?" The Lion King finally spoke. He looked at his daughter below the stage and said, "Territories have always been easy to defend and hard to attack. The earlier we enter the Continent, the better resources we can obtain. Once we occupy it, the other races will not dare to declare war on us so easily. We can avoid a large number of casualties."
Hong Yi's eyes turned cold. She asked, "If that's the case, why did you agree to it back then?"
"Times have changed," the Lion King said. "If I agreed, the Sky Tiger Race, the Temi people, and the Flowing Moon Race would definitely not enter the Continent. Then, our Flame Lion Race would have fewer competitors. Otherwise, once the competition starts, let's not talk about who can beat who. After all, it's not a good thing to fall out with each other. "
"So you broke the agreement?" Hong Yi asked loudly. "How do you want me to explain this to Lu An?!"
"Hong Yi!" Shaxiong spoke again. He shouted, "Don't forget that you're a Flame Lion, not a human! All you think about is how to make the Fire Lion Clan better, how to make the Fire Lion Clan stronger, instead of standing in the perspective of human beings and thinking for human beings! Don't forget who chased us out in the first place. Who made us live on the ocean for tens of thousands of years! "
Shaxiong's words immediately made all the Flame Lion Elders present nod. Compared to the humans' massacre and expulsion, what did what they did count as?
"I can understand your difficulties," the Lion King said. His tone was not serious, but it was a little heavy. "Back then, you were very close to that human woman. After she died, it's normal for you to want to take care of her child. However, no matter what, don't forget your roots. If you really want to help him, I can avoid the line of defense where he is and attack from the direction of the other humans. Moreover, after returning to the Continent, I'll give him a place to live and guarantee him a life of wealth. How about that? "
"…"
Hong Yi's expression became even more serious. She said, "Is there no room for discussion?"
"Indeed, there's no room for discussion." The Lion King said seriously and firmly. "Since he already knows about this, it saves me a lot of trouble. Tell him that I've made up my mind. If he really wants to stop me, he can only blame me for being rude. "
"…"
Hong Yi did not speak. All the Flame Lions looked at her. Many Elders spoke one after another, persuading her to change her mind and not to think about others.
Hearing these words, Hong Yi's head gradually lowered. However, she did not surrender or give up. Instead, she let go of the patience in her heart.
After three breaths, Hong Yi suddenly raised her head. She took a deep breath and looked at the Lion King. She said seriously, "Father, I've already sacrificed myself to him."
As soon as she said this, the entire Lion King's Hall fell silent!
All the Flame Lions looked at the Princess in shock. No one expected this to happen. When the Princess said that she wanted to sacrifice herself to Lu An, this human had clearly refused. How did it become that she had already sacrificed herself?
Sure enough, the Lion King's expression darkened. His aura suddenly spread out. It was obvious that he was very angry. He shouted, "When did this happen?"
"At the very beginning." Hong Yi said, "The night he refused to sacrifice himself, I sacrificed myself to him. However, it was not his request. I was the one who made the sacrifice. If he dies, I'll die immediately. "
"You!" The Lion King looked at his daughter's angry face. He knew that his daughter would never lie. He asked, "Why did you do this?"
"To keep my word." Hong Yi looked at the Lion King and said, "To make sure that you don't go back on your word."
"You!" The Lion King was furious. He suddenly raised his voice and shouted, "As a member of the Flame Lion Tribe, you're actually thinking for the sake of humans. Do you still have our tribe in your heart?!"
"Yes." Hong Yi said forcefully. "I'm not hindering the development of the Flame Lion Tribe. However, now is really not a good time. Otherwise, why hasn't the Sky Tiger Tribe done anything?"
"The Sky Tiger Tribe has always been in a state of disunity. Even if Princess Qi wants to attack, how many Sky Tigers can she gather in such a short time?" The Lion King shouted, "Tell him that if he dares to do anything to you, I'll definitely flatten his alliance. I'll make him and his family bleed like a river!"
"What if it's me?" Hong Yi looked at the Lion King and asked, "What if I use my life to force you not to attack the mainland?"
"…"
All the elders looked at the Princess nervously. They did not expect the Princess to say something like this. Shaxiong also looked at his sister with a frown. It seemed that he had really spoiled his sister!
The Lion King took a deep breath and looked at his daughter with a very serious and determined gaze. He said, "Even if it's you, it's impossible to stop the Flame Lion Tribe from advancing. If you really die, no matter what the reason is, I'll make the Lu Clan pay the most painful price! "
